Nollywood actress, Rita Edochie has reacted after a Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) was seen publicly defying the order of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Tuesday.
The CSP blatantly told the Governor that he was acting on orders from above when the number 1 citizen of Lagos State ordered him and his men to vacate the Magodo Phase 2 Estate.
The security operatives had besieged the estate in the company of suspected land grabbers and members of a family who had planned to execute a Supreme Court judgment.
The development caused chaos as residents called on Governor Sanwo-Olu to intervene.
He then visited the estate and told the leader of the security operatives to vacate the premises as the matter was between private individuals and the state government.
Even when he reminded the CSP that as the governor of the state and the Chief Security Officer, he was working on ensuring peace and order, the police team remained adamant.
The Police chief went further to publicly tell the governor that they were at the estate on the orders of the Inspector-General of Police, Usman Baba as well as the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami.
Reacting to the situation, actress Rita Edochie expressed disappointment over the degree of lawlessness in the country.
According to ritaedochie NIGERIA is a LAND of LAWLESSNESS as CSP of POLICE COMMAND Abuja CAME to MAGODO Lagos to DEMOLISH BUILDINGS without the KNOWLEDGE/AUTHORITY from the LAGOS STATE GOVERNMENT even when the GOVERNOR the CHIEF SECURITY OFFICER and the matter has nothing to do with the POLICE in Abuja.
